Hearing a bang, Bai Jia suddenly made an unexpected move under the pressure of great fear.

He rushed to the archery statue, stretched out his hand, and snatched the arrow from the bow in the statue's hand abruptly!Bai Jia clenched the long arrow shaft with her right hand, turned around, pointed the sharp arrow at the three new teammates, and shouted tremblingly: "Don't come over! Don't come over! I will kill anyone who comes over!" stab someone!"

It seemed that his emotions had entered an unstable state again, and the expression on his face was no longer so weak, but instead was filled with crazy light like when he went crazy before.

The three new teammates saw that he suddenly went crazy and took a weapon, so they didn't dare to go forward for a while.

"Huh?" Even the maid was shocked by Bai Jia's off-line behavior, and stood there for a while, not knowing how to react.

Even the movement of the bronze statue has stagnated. The bronze statue is obviously powerful and inviolable. However, perhaps it did not expect the player to take the arrow. After a moment of stagnation, it slowly moved again. I don't know where I took a new arrow and put it on the bow again.

"Bai Jia, are you offending the NPC? Be careful that it shoots you with an arrow." Lin Xueer said.

"Ah...but..." Bai Jia took the arrow and immediately hid aside.

Wang Yunzhi cast his eyes on the bronze statue, and found that it was not angered by Bai Jia, nor did he intend to shoot him to death. Instead, he quietly held his bow and arrow, aiming at the heads of all the players.

"It seems to be all right." He Lin said in a low voice: "Teacher, do you want me to get you one too?"

"So this arrow can be taken..." Cheng Yuan said to herself.

"It's not that you can take it, but if you take it, there will be no serious consequences." Ren Jiafeng said.

"..." Cheng Yuan suddenly seemed to realize something, she quickly glanced at her two teammates, and suddenly rushed forward with a stride.

"Stay away from me!" Bai Jia thought she was going to rush up to kill herself, so she hurriedly backed away, holding the arrow tightly in her hand, ready to defend herself at any time.

However, Bai Jia was no longer in Cheng Yuan's eyes. She rushed towards the bronze statue wholeheartedly. Following Bai Jia's example, she snatched an arrow, turned around without hesitation, and turned towards the bronze statue among her two teammates. One of the stabbed past...

When she started to rush, her two teammates understood and followed her closely, trying to grab the arrow before her, but their reaction was still a step slower. Cheng Yuan had been a manager for many years, The reaction is extremely quick, and the strength is also great, and it still comes out on top.

Wang Yunzhi felt that his shoulders were being circled by He Lin again, and he was leading him back a few steps, away from the danger zone.

The arrow in Cheng Yuan's hand had stabbed firmly into a person's neck.

"Ah~!" There was a scream, and the artery on Li Pu's neck was pierced by her, and the blood splashed out like a fountain. It will make people's blood flow out without hindrance.

Li Pu fell to the ground and struggled hard, and soon lost his blood and turned into a corpse.

"..." Ren Jiafeng didn't say anything. He watched from the sidelines and saw that his teammate was dead, so he asked, "Should I thank you for not killing me?"

Cheng Yuan's gaze was cold, she shrugged, and said indifferently: "Who told me that the enmity between him and me is deeper? I'm most afraid of him, you're better off."

"Anyway, thank you." Ren Jiafeng wiped his cold sweat.

"..." Lin Xueer stared blankly at the blood on the ground, not knowing whether to praise Cheng Yuan for being decisive, or to say that she was too cold-blooded.

Fortunately, Cheng Yuan did not intend to continue killing people. Now that one of the seven players has died, everyone can enter the door, and there is no need to continue to fight for arrows, so she immediately said: "I killed Li Pu because I was with you. He has a grudge, it has nothing to do with you, don't think about dealing with me, the next level may require us to join forces."

"Of course." He Lin nodded indifferently. He didn't know the three new teammates very well, let alone their grievances and resentments in the previous square, so he didn't intend to intervene.

"Congratulations to the six players. You have sacrificed the life of a teammate. Now, the gate of the castle will be opened for you." The maid bowed respectfully, and then said with a smile, "Just for safety's sake, Everyone can no longer go to the bronze statue to grab bows and arrows, please give me the arrows you have already grabbed."

Knowing that his life would not be threatened for the time being, Bai Jia obediently handed the arrow to the maid. The bronze statue also disappeared into the wall, as if it had never appeared before.

The heavy dark door opened and everyone walked in.

After entering the gate, there was a long corridor first, but the maid did not lead everyone down the corridor first, but turned to the side and led everyone into a small study.

"This is a small study room. Everyone, please rest here for a while. I want to inform the master and other maids first." The maid bowed: "The rest time is 10 minutes, please make good use of it."

I don't know why, but the small study feels very warm. It's a small room with bookshelves on the walls. There are books on the bookshelves. Apart from the bookshelves, the other furniture is a soft sofa.

He Lin pulled Wang Yunzhi to sit on the sofa, and helped him put the little milk wolf on his lap.

Compared with the cold and desolate outside, the inside of the castle is much warmer, especially this small study room, maybe because it is relatively small, and there is some wonderful heating equipment, it is relatively warm, at least it will not make people shiver from the cold, little milk The wolf immediately snored comfortably on Wang Yunzhi's lap.

Cheng Yuan and Ren Jiafeng started negotiating in a low voice, probably to rebuild trust and establish some kind of alliance relationship, but Bai Jia was still wary and hostile towards them, so he found a seat farthest from them and sat down, curled up Standing up and hugging his knees, his eyes stared at them vigilantly.

"...I want to find a fairy tale book to read. I don't know if there will be one here." Lin Xueer has always been a sickly optimist who is not afraid of death. She ran to the bookshelf and compared the cover She sat down on the sofa with her arms around a fancy book, opened it, and found that the book was full of densely packed text and very few pictures, and even if there were, they were very boring pictures, which made her immediately lose interest and pouted in disappointment. mouthed.

Wang Yunzhi's eyes were unconsciously attracted by the book in her hand—this book was written in two languages, with one page in French and one page in Chinese, as if it was deliberately prepared for players who read Chinese. the same.

"Brother Yunzhi, do you want to read it?" Lin Xueer noticed his gaze keenly, and immediately handed him the book: "Then let you read it, I don't bother to put it back."

Wang Yunzhi flipped through it briefly, and found that it was a book introducing the owner of the castle, and the information in it seemed to be very important.

"By the way, just before we entered the door, the maid had already said—welcome to Bluebeard Castle." He whispered to He Lin, "I seem to have a little impression of the name Bluebeard."

In some fairy tales and anime, Bluebeard is mentioned. He is a gloomy and cruel nobleman who likes to marry young and beautiful girls into his castle, and then secretly kills them all, hiding their bodies in the castle...

"I think so too." He Lin nodded, took the book, and flipped through it briefly: "However, this book says that the owner of the castle we came to is not the blue beard in the fairy tale, but It is the prototype of Bluebeard, Baron Gilles de Rais, of course, for the sake of simplicity, he is also called Bluebeard, but his image is different from the fairy tales of later generations, and the book shall prevail here."

"..." Wang Yunzhi only saw that he flipped through the book a few times, and it only took a few seconds for him to get the important information into his mind. He couldn't help but sincerely praised: "You read so fast."

"I took the speed reading course." He Lin shrugged nonchalantly: "In order to better cope with the exam."

Recalling what noble schools He Lin attended in the real world, Wang Yunzhi understood.

He glanced at the bookshelf again, and suddenly realized a very important question.

These books are not placed here in vain as decorations, and the maid also said that the players can only rest here for 10 minutes... Maybe, after going out from here, they will not be able to come back and see them again. These books are gone, what if there is important information in these books?For today's plan, there is only as much as you can read and as much as you can remember.

"There are still 7 and 7 minutes." Wang Yunzhi looked at his watch: "He Lin, how many books can you finish reading in [-] and [-] minutes?"

There are not many books on the bookshelf, just a few, but it is not an easy task to read them all.

"Can you read it all so-so?" He Lin said, "But how much you can remember is uncertain."

"Okay." Wang Yunzhi nodded, without wasting any more time, immediately put the little milk wolf aside, got up and went to the bookshelf, took down all the remaining books, carried them back, and put them on the bookshelf between himself and He He. Rin: "I can also help to see a little..."

He Lin nodded without asking any further questions, took a copy and opened it.

This was probably the first time Wang Yunzhi saw He Lin reading. He looked as leisurely as if he was in his own study, with a cup of coffee in hand, without any expression on his face, his eyes scanning the pages of the book, and flipping through the pages from time to time. Page, be quiet.

Wang Yunzhi didn't want to look like he was sitting on his hands, so he buried his head in the pages of the book, but his reading speed was far behind He Lin, and it took him a long time to turn a page.

The small study was quiet and everyone was busy with their own affairs.

Until the maid opened the door and came in: "Everyone, 10 minutes is up. Next, it's time for you to go to the guest room to rest."

"..." He Lin closed the last book, still expressionless.

"However." The maid said with a smile: "Before that, please allow me to introduce the other two maids. The three of us will be in charge of everyone's daily life here. Please take care of us."

She led the players out of the study room. In the corridor, there were two other beautiful girls in exquisite clothes waiting. They saluted and said, "Welcome, all distinguished guests."

"Hello, thank you." Wang Yunzhi nodded politely.

Only then did he notice that the two new maids, together with the maid who brought them in at the beginning, had a brass plaque pinned to their chests. The plaques were small and had a French word written on them, which seemed to be their names. Oh, it's a pity that he doesn't know French... Wait, it doesn't matter if you don't know, the Chinese translation is written under the French, which can be read out.

The maid who brought them was named Francoise, and the other two new maids were named Isabelle and Brigitte.They're all nice names.

"Okay, players, get ready for your first test." Françoise suddenly clapped her hands and became serious: "I believe everyone has seen the name tags on our chests. Next, I will I hope that all players can call out our real names according to the name cards."

For a moment, the atmosphere in the corridor suddenly became serious, and all players realized that things were not simple.

The name is clearly written here, what else can I ask?Is there another trap here?

"Sister maid, do you mean to let us pronounce your names in standard French?" Lin Xueer asked.

"No, it can be pronounced in French or Chinese, and it doesn't matter if the pronunciation is inaccurate. Our judgment standard is very loose." Françoise said with a smile: "Don't be nervous, as long as the deviation is not large, it can be regarded as correct. For example, in Mandarin Read out the translated name, it’s all right.”

As soon as she said this, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

None of the players present are good at French, so I'm afraid they can only read Chinese translations.

After waiting for a while, Françoise first walked to Ren Jiafeng, who was closest to her, and asked, "Hello, player Ren Jiafeng, please read my name."

"This... how do I know, I'll tell you later, okay?" After all, Ren Jiafeng has experienced several squares, and he is used to being cautious. Even if the topic is right in front of him, he always suspects that there is a trap, and refuses to say it right away.

"Wrong, what you said just now is not my name." Françoise smiled, and suddenly took out a very old-fashioned firearm from her arms, which was engraved with complicated patterns , she raised the musket and pointed it at Ren Jiafeng's forehead: "Please read my name."

"..." Ren Jiafeng didn't expect that she would use a gun to threaten his life, and cold sweat suddenly broke out on his forehead. He didn't dare to say anything unnecessary, and stared at the name tag on her chest with wide eyes, as if I had to confirm the name over and over again, and after repeated confirmations, I carefully read out the Chinese translation: "Françoise."

After all, he is an employee related to the entertainment industry, and he dare not be negligent when it comes to life and death. He speaks clearly and clearly, every word without mistakes. Françoise, even the most picky Chinese teacher , and I can't find anything wrong with it.

In Death's Cube, however, nothing can be predicted.

"Wrong." Françoise said coldly, and immediately pulled the trigger in her hand.
